Hi! I’m Alexa. Welcome to the Homestead!
About Me
15 years ago I started cooking from scratch and gardening alone in my little city apartment. Now I live on a small homestead with my husband, our first baby, Allison, and our second baby, Matthew, who were both born at home.
I have a passion for sharing with others how to cook from scratch and create a homestead no matter where they live. Whether you live alone in an apartment or with a family in a modern home, you can create a modern day traditional homestead with just a few simple skills.
Our family lives on a small modern day homestead in the Pacific Northwest. I keep the chickens and make bread while my husband builds furniture in his spare time. We love creating our homestead with our own two hands.
Fun Facts about Me
I used to be an NFL cheerleader! Yep, Go Seahawks.
Growing up when I wasn’t in school I was in gymnastics or dance class. There were also a few years of musical theatre in there too.
My favorite TV shows are Dancing with the Stars, Outlander, Yellowstone, and occasionally after a long day my husband and I will watching the Bachelor (but only to giggle at how ridiculous it is!). I also have seen The Office multiple times and still would laugh at it to this day.
I’m a bit of an organic nerd who always double checks ingredients. Now a days we call that “crunchy”. So yes, I am definitely crunchy in all aspects of life.
